Almost 20How long have you been full time??
You have a top heavy high seniority feeder list!! Damn, I would have thought with 20 years you would be half way up!!Almost 20
I've found 2 things to be true
A) The worst feeder routes are way better than the best delivery ones
B) It's like I'm working for a different company

And when there's a free buffet !!They all think they can do it and 95% of them don't last a week before they come running back.
Note: It's the only time you see a feeder driver run.
A guy wanting to go back to package from feeders. Now I've heard it all
It took me 1 day. I finished my production week on a Friday and started covering my first run the following Monday. After the first day on my own I knew there was no way I was going back to package, they'd have to shoot me first.It took me 2 months to get used to it.
I questioned if I made the right decision.
I now know I should have done it 2 years ago, not this year, LOL
Can you really call it running? It's more of walking with a lot of extra flailing of the arms.They all think they can do it and 95% of them don't last a week before they come running back.

No problem... I believe most everywhere is 3 years... use to be 2 in some areas but they felt like the training and money spend was worth more than a short 2 year commitment... so do you not like feeder or just don't want to wait forever for the regular guy to leave??
You can bail here at any time as long as you haven't gained seniority in feeders, which is bidding a run and doing it one day. Not many do it mind you, two since I've been here. One didn't care for it and the other just wanted his CDL.Why and not stay in who knows.And to the OPs question, you are qualified to cover and have to cover for 3 years.
Not much flailing going on don't want to drop my twinkie.Can you really call it running? It's more of walking with a lot of extra flailing of the arms.

“They all think they can do it”....lol always gotta be an in the group.
There’s lots of truck drivers out there Cement, you are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. Different strokes for different folks, simple as that.
GUNN and Devils Lake are about the only two centers in the world where being in package is not necessarily a bad thing. They're basically all rural retirement routes.The FNN reported that there was a feeder in Gunn that was forced to take a run (low seniority and qualified, no one signed the bid, so it is his.) That driver reportedly is not a fan.

It’s still a driver sort and load up there. One tiny buildingI know a retired package driver out of GUNN that used to run between 16 and 20 stops a day. He liked to brag that he had the easiest delivery route in UPS
